SCORM sending wrong pass/fail status for Branching assessment

Hello all,

I’m seeing some very strange behaviour in the Branching component when I try to use it as a course assessment. Can anyone explain the following?

I set up a super-simple branching exercise like this:

The ‘Option 2 is wrong’ option has a score of 0, and the “Wrong” item has “Is Correct Item?” turned off.

Next, I enabled the Assessment for this component so that the score and pass/fail status of this activity would be sent out by the SCORM:

You can see that a pass should only be achieved if the score exceeds 60%.

Then I published as SCORM 1.2 and uploaded the file to SCORM Cloud for testing. This screen shows my choices as I completed the branching activity:

Note my score is 0%, and the cross indicating that I got it wrong.

SCORM Cloud reports the results as follows:

The score is correct, but how has is concluded that this is “Passed”? Seems bizarre.

I tested this in my LMS as well, same result. The SCORM is sending out the wrong success status.

Grateful if anyone can shed any light on this!

Thanks

Steve

Hey Steve!

What is your setting for Course Completion status in the Course settings?

Aha - it is set to Course Completion. So presumably I should set this to Assessment Completion instead?

OK it works with Course Completion set to Assessment Completion :smile:

Thanks very much Helen!

You got it! Glad to hear it’s working now.

I’ve been banging my head against the wall with similar branching issue all day! Currently…

I have a branching component with branching assessment enabled, and the score is saved to a variable called “branching_score”. I’ve set up triggers to change the course status to passed (80% or higher) or failed based on the variables changed event. I even published the course with “Logic Completion” under the course settings. But no matter what I do, I couldn’t get the passed/failed status showed on the LMS. The course keeps showing as “Resume” even when I get 100% on the branching activity. Did I miss anything? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Instead of "Logic Completion” under the course settings try “Logic Completion & Logic Passed/Failed”.

I tried that option too, but It still didn’t work. It’s very frustrating since I will have a few of these launching this week.

If you DM me a link to one of these - preferably one that’s quite short/easy to work through! - I’ll take a quick look for you.
